I like the fact that Fortune is described as one of the astral powers that turn the heavenly spheres, and that her wheel is seen as one such sphere. I was also impressed by the use of the term "gods" ("dei") to refer to such angelical powers.

Note: Not all pictures belong to the lot book. The lot book starts in the 5th row with the right picture and contains totally 13 pictures (last picture is the pope, the first is the lion)
The text is fragmented and in rather bad shape. The lot book is collected inside a MS with other texts.
